A damned fine souls-like, with a few drawbacks. Combat experience was top notch, easily the highlight. Save for the enemy variety kinda fell short. Audio mixing was an issue with some of the loudness in the voice acting. Last gripe, there were far too many yellow-painted "LOOK HERE, GAMER, GO HERE. HERE'S YOUR NEXT OBJECTIVE!!!!".
Those aside, I truly enjoyed its presentation and combat loop. Some of the boss designs were SUPER sick, and I look forward to my second playthrough to hopefully 100% the game, and get the 2nd ending.

This is my second time playing through TLOU2, on PS5. First playthrough was on release on PS4 in 2020, so doesn't quite count? All that aside, I mean it's Naughty Dog - the mechanics work like a charm and it is easily one of the most beautifully presented games I've ever had the pleasure of playing. But when it comes to gameplay loop? Gets a little repetitive, despite the strong narrative arc that Druckmann takes you through.
After having JUST finished Metroid: Fusion, and going back to replay this game, I had a mostly enjoyable experience! Controls left a little to be desired, felt a little funky at times. But by and large really enjoyed this "sequel", and will be revisiting for sure!
